Re: whats the Go!
TUNA! TUNA! TUNA!
some BIG TUNA here at the moment,Buuuuuuut the bloody wind has not stoped blowing for 3 months,a few days here and there but that's it.
we had good weather while the Tuna comp was on at the bay,takeing advantage of this we slipped out and nailed 8 longtail for the morning,all fish were on #10 DBT's.
some great fish where crashing but getting onto the Really Big ones proved a mission,and time wasted chaseing the 20kg plus fish should have been spent braining the 10kg ones..
i know it sounds lame,but i am almost getting boared with Tuna,and do not really target them much,but with a great window that weekend (sat) and some big fish around i had to go.
we are waiting for a break to hit them again with reports filtering in from the Big reef Boats,that there are some big schools of Bait in close and the Tuna Schools are sitting on them.
i hope so as this makes the job a lot easier as the fish seem to become a bit complacement after not being hit for a while and plenty of tucker around.
as for the flats,with the onset of cooler days, trev's and things are starting to rise onto the flats,things are shapeing up to be a real nice cooler mounth sesion..
with a bit of luck, the bait schools will come in close and get o the flats,with the tide.
i can tell you sight fishing cruzing Longtails in 3 feet of water on white sand is the wildest fun!!!
i fish schools of mixed Longtails and Mack Tuna a couple of x-mass's ago with Toddy up off Rules beach.
we where in water so skinny the prop was stuck in the sand,and the beach (wich we should have fished off) only 20 feet from the back of the boat.
the fish had schooled up the bait in the shallows and where just braining them,this was just insane fishing.
it's a shame neither of us would put down the rod to video the action.
that should wet you appaite for you mate.

Re: whats the Go!
Hey Justin,
Mate work is seriuosly getting in the way of my fishing. Would you believe I drove Cairns to Mackay this week and not a bloody ounce of time for a fish. >I think next week I gotta go to Rocky but I'll have to make the time I reckon.
The boat is getting cobwebs on it >

Re: whats the Go!
Justin,
Planning to get up to Hervey Bay next weekend for the goldens. I haven't been up this year.
If the weather is OK, I'd like have a look around Bribie/Tangalooma for longtails this weekend. I'm not mucking around this year, I'm using a GLX 13 weight.
Are there any longtails out of Mooloolaba? I guess they are all off Bundy.
